There is a “gravity hole” in the Indian Ocean — a spot where Earth’s gravitational pull is weaker, its mass is lower than normal, and the sea level dips by over 328 feet (100 meters).

T he Indian Ocean "gravity hole" is the site of the deepest dent in Earth's gravitational field. It's a circular ocean region ...

In the Indian Ocean, there is a place where the laws of gravity seem to falter—a gigantic depression in the Earth’s geoid where the gravitational force is weaker than normal, causing the sea level to ...

For years, researchers have tried to pinpoint how an area deep in the Indian Ocean with lower gravitational pull came to be. A team in India may have figured it out.

The depression is deep in the Indian Ocean. Ningthoujam, Negi & Pandey/EOS, 2019 Geophysicist Shijie Zhong told the outlet the study offers an interesting take that could help better understand ...

An enormous gravity hole lying in the Indian Ocean has been discovered by researchers at the Indian Institute of Science. The sea level only dips because of a gravitational tug-of-war just off the ...

Earth There's a gravity 'hole' in the Indian Ocean and now we may know why. Earth appears to have less mass beneath a certain part of the Indian Ocean compared with the rest of the planet.

The long-pondered mysterious depression spot in the Indian Ocean that experiences less gravity than the rest of the planet is likely due to large plumes of magma under the Earth’s crust ...

There is a “gravity hole” in the Indian Ocean — a spot where Earth’s gravitational pull is weaker, its mass is lower than normal, and the sea level dips by over 328 feet (100 meters).

The Indian Ocean "gravity hole" is the site of the deepest dent in Earth's gravitational field. It's a circular ocean region with a gravitational pull that's so weak, sea levels are 348 feet (106 ...
